🎉🤗 Mush Amsterdam turns 1 years old! 🤗🎉
Hey dear cuddly friends,
One year ago, Mush Amsterdam was born—bringing together a beautiful community of touch-positive humans ready to create spaces of safety, love, authenticity, and autonomy. Since then, we’ve shared countless cuddles, laughter, healing moments, and deep connections. Now it’s time to celebrate together!
📅 When: Sunday, August 31st – 14:00 - 19:00
📍 Where: Amsterdam (with inside & outside mush options)
🥰 What: The biggest cuddle puddle of the year! (and more)
🎉 Afterparty? For those who can never get enough cuddles we will go for a cuddly dinner together somewhere nearby.
This won’t just be a regular Mush—it will be an extra-Mushy birthday edition with more time to cuddle, connect, live music, delicious birthday treats, and lots of extra surprises.
To provide all the food, drinks, location, birthday gifts, and other surprises, we estimate around €20–40 per person. Those who can afford a bit more allow us to offer the same amazing experience to others who have less to spend ♥️ All proceeds will be used directly to make the most of this event 🤗
Come celebrate, cuddle, and co-regulate with us—let’s make this birthday one to remember. We can’t wait to Mush with you! 😺🧸
Mush love,
The Amsterdam Mush Team ♥️

If you have never attended a Welcome Mush before, this is your lucky day. The Mush birthday will be inclusive for everyone. We will explain and practice all the skills and agreements that we use to make the mush as safe and loving as possible. More info about this below:
The Mush is a values-based, touch-positive community. Your entry point into our family is the Welcome Mush—a one-of-a-kind structured cuddle experience combining touch-positive practices, non-verbal consent training, group nervous system co-regulation, and many-handed healing touch.
Our cuddle space isn’t just cozy—it’s a gentle reset for the nervous system, a soft landing for the heart, and a reminder of the magic of human connection.
🤗 What is a Welcome Mush? 🤗
Whether it’s your first time or your fiftieth, you’ll:
✔️ Review our community values and agreements
✔️ Play non-verbal games & consent exercises
✔️ Learn the power of nervous system co-regulation
✔️ Join our inclusive, ever-expanding cuddle puddle
🧭 Our Values & Agreements 🧭
1️⃣ Safety – Everyone feels secure
2️⃣ Love – Unconditional, platonic love
3️⃣ Authenticity – Be your true self
4️⃣ Autonomy – Everything is optional
(You can read our full guidelines on the website below.)
🤍 More Than Just a Workshop 🤍
After the Welcome Mush you can become part of the Mush Family and join 'family mushes' — The mush family is a community that regularly organizes cuddle events or attends fun activities together from a WhatsApp group.
